They cultivate the frogs, skin them and

of catching them. Some shoot them as
the frogs sit on the lilies or banks, others
fish for them with bit of red flannel at

The legs are only used for the table.

what II TAI 70 be a Christian.

w mt HI Is TO DC ~ OAEAHb~U"
A son who had fallen by intemperance,
writes to his father: u think viii JON tne
church as know it will be great help to
me in trying to do right. hope that, some
time, may be able to tell you that am
Christian. That is what want to be-"
The father replied: 81 do not wish to say
ANYTHING to discourage or retard your JOIN
ing the church, only to urge that the step be
well considered and taken from right mo-
tives. The true idea of the church, In my
thought, is that it is, or ought to be composed
of Christians-Ch friends and followers
and servants; not protesting or claiming
TO be better than others, but confessing
themselves TO be sinners, even as
others, who have felt their need OF be-
ing saved from their corrupt and depraved
selves-from their sin, as well as from its
consequences-and who accept, believe on,
and embrace Jesus the Christ as the only,
the God given, almighty, and loving Saviour
of sinners condemned, lost, unable to save
themselve but by His grace and help; and
who, thus accepting and closing IN with
Him, yield themselves wholly to Him In
gratitude and love, to be His entirely, to be
Kept by Him, to live by faith in Him, with
Him, and for Him now and forever; and
who, in so embracing Him, receive and en-
ioy as His free gift, His offered pardon and
grace: and all this by the light and life-giv-
ing grace and work of the Holy Spirit"
So the loved and loing Apostle John writes
of Him Il: IL, 49,: "As many as received
Him, to them gave He power to become the
sons of God, even to them that believe on His
name, which were born, not of blood, nor oi
the will Of tho flesh, nor of the will OF man.
but of God"
So one may not properly enter the church
merely as an infirmary or hospital or school,
to be helped and cured and educated, but as
Christ's, redeemed by His blood; to confess
Him, follow, love. obey and revere Him il
the sincere devotion Of gratitude and love
You ''want to be a Christian" See what
it is.

Aiconol as a Cause Of Disease.

Sir William Gull, an eminent English ply
sican, says: lone of the commonest things
in British society is that people are injured
by drink without being drunkards. 1t goes
on so quietly that it is very difficult to OBJ
serve. There is point short Of drunkenness
in which man may very materially injure
his constitution by means Of alcohol. From
my experience, alcohol is the most destruc-
tive agent that we are aware Of in this
country. I hardly know any more potent
cause Of disease than alcohol. Avery large
number OF people in society are dying day by
day poisoned with alcohol"

The trade dollar Is being redeemed at par

trade dollars will come back to the treasury
The trade dollar was authorized in 1878 and
made legal tender as other silver coin. By
1876 more thar SIS, 600 900 had been coined,
and s12, 600, 900 of this had been exported to
China and Japan. II is estimated that there
are now about 1000, 900 trade dollars in the
United States, and altogether nearly 40, co.,

It was coined it was worth 102 $40 cents in

value of dollar note in 1878 being only
about So cents. Until July, 1888, the trade
dollar was worth 80 cents in New York. It
then fell to IS cents, and was bought in large
amounts by capitalists and mine owners who
paid the coin out at 100 cents each to their
employees. Then dealers refused to receive
trade dollars and they went out Of circula-
ton.
